Heuristic Optimization Techniques For Voltage Stability Enhancement Of Radial Distribution Network With Simultaneous Consideration Of Network Reconfiguration And Dg Sizing And Allocations, Mahiraj Singh Rawat, Shelly Vadhera Jan 2019

Heuristic Optimization Techniques For Voltage Stability Enhancement Of Radial Distribution Network With Simultaneous Consideration Of Network Reconfiguration And Dg Sizing And Allocations, Mahiraj Singh Rawat, Shelly Vadhera

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, heuristic optimization techniques, such as integrated particle swarm optimization (IPSO), teaching--learning-based optimization (TLBO), and Jaya optimization, were applied effectively for the first time to optimize the radial distribution network (RDN) by simultaneously considering reconfiguration of the network and allocation and sizing of the distributed generations (DG). The objectives were to maximize the voltage stability and to minimize the power loss of the network without violating the system constraints. In standard PSO technique, the movement of current particle depends upon global best position and its own best position up to current step. However, if the particle lies too …

Optimal Dg Allocation For Enhancing Voltage Stability And Minimizing Power Loss Using Hybrid Gray Wolf Optimizer, Salah Kamel, Ayman Awad, Hussein Abdel-Mawgoud, Francisco Jurado

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

High penetration of photovoltaic and wind turbine-based distributed generators (DGs) can help reduce carbon emissions which is an important goal for the whole world. DG can be used to improve the voltage stability, present generation reserve/emergency, and consequently, the system power quality can be improved. However, it is very important to select the right size and location of a DG so that the power system can increase the gained benefits of such an installation to the maximum. In this paper, a hybrid optimization technique is proposed to determine the optimal allocation of DG in the standard IEEE 33-bus radial distribution …


Multiple Distributed Generations Placement And Sizing Based On Voltage Stability Index And Power Loss Minimization, Oumaima Garfi, Helmi Aloui Jan 2019

Multiple Distributed Generations Placement And Sizing Based On Voltage Stability Index And Power Loss Minimization, Oumaima Garfi, Helmi Aloui

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper proposes a rapid analytical method to determine the locations and sizes of multiple distributed generations (DGs) inside a distribution network. DGs locations are chosen with the aim of enhancing voltage stability and their sizes are picked so as to minimize system power losses. To evaluate the effect of the DG's nature on the system's performance, the proposed DG allocation method is tested for all DG types and the impact of the combination of different types of DGs is equally investigated, which offers a guide to designing an optimal hybrid network.
